Vancouver Olympics done. Paralympics here we come!
By Marc Smith
It’s been a couple of days since the Olympic flame was extinguished here in Vancouver and the city is quietly getting back to normalcy.
I’m exhausted! I was out every single day enjoying the energy and excitement that was so evident throughout our city. I’m so proud that Vancouver and Canada represented in a way that no one saw coming. Here are a couple of cool links to stories from some international press that I think sums up how the world felt we did.
Brian Williams (NBC) Leaving behind a thank you note
Bill Plaschke (LA TImes) Canada is a Winter Games Wonderland
So to wrap up my 17 day experience here’s a short video.
I promise to be just as excited and proudly Canadian for the Paralympics and I look forward to watching those athletes excel and reach for Gold.
